The Way of Living is the prayer and liturgy resource for the Lindisfarne Community, a new monastic religious order in the broadly Anglican-Celtic tradition. The motherhouse of the community is in Ithaca, NY. At the heart of the ancient monastic tradition was an emphasis on daily prayer and Bible reading. In the new monasticism, we are again finding our spiritual basis in a disciplined life of prayer, study, work and rest. The idea of a Daily Office is an ancient one in the Christian church. The daily prayers, Psalms, readings and meditations make for a balanced spiritual practice. The Way of Living is intended to be flexible and can be read each morning and/or evening or at some other suitable time. This edition is unique in using inclusive language for all its prayers, Bible readings, meditations, Psalms and Canticles, the “little songs” of scripture. You can read about the Lindisfarne Community on their website: http://www.lindisfarnecommunity.org You may contact them by e-mail: icm@icmi.org
Like an underground river, the monastic tradition keeps on resurging in a host of unexpected times and places. Secular Monasticism, A Journey describes one of its most recent incarnations. The founders and members of the Lindisfarne Community share with us their bold attempt to be a secular monastic religious order open to the exigencies of the contemporary world. Age-old wisdom once again reveals its perennial relevance in helping us learn how to be followers of Christ in God's today.

This work raises the need to create an ICC (International Climate Court) in order to repair and reduce the environmental inequalities suffered by Africa, as well as small island developing States, which, by their geographical location and their level of development, are harmed or especially affected by the harmful effects of climate change. Excessive greenhouse gas emissions, pollution due to fast fashion; radioactive waste; as well as the complexity of climatic migrations seriously alter the protection of the environment by and on the African continent. The proliferation of cases before the ECHR, The conviction of Switzerland on Tuesday April 9, 2024 by the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR) for violation of the Human Rights Convention and The proliferation of cases before the I/A Court H.R, because the exercise of certain rights guaranteed by the Conventions can be compromised by environmental degradation and exposure to environmental risks shows the obvious need of an ICC (International Climate Court) to reduce environmental inequalities.
The SCM Studyguide to Liturgy is an introduction to liturgy that considers the basic 'building blocks' needed to grasp the subject area. It outlines the essential shape and content of Christian worship and explores a range of liturgical dynamics of which both students of liturgy and leaders of liturgy need to be aware. The book is designed as an introductory resource for the study of liturgy at level one in theological colleges and university courses, and will also be use to local preachers, readers, local ministry teams and clergy wanting to look afresh at liturgy as they employ the recently revised rites of their tradition. It includes sections on scripture and sacrament, space and symbol, music and song, discipleship and learning as well as style and substance, cycles and crises, the fullness of life and nurturing the Christian community.

It's hard to be the only one. That single sentence from a teenage congregant sums up the conviction that motivated Christian Theology for a Secular Society. In these dying days of Christendom, the reality that most Western Christians face is living out their faith as a minority in the midst of a culture that is at every level--personal, institutional, and societal--secular in nature. While most living in Western societies still affirm belief in God and often other vaguely recognizable Christian beliefs, these affirmations frequently have little to do with how daily life is lived. The idea that the God best known to us in Jesus Christ is actually in charge of life is foreign. For most, Christ...
